[Damn, Cloud lives where I live except he had cool mountains. I'm sorry, son.
Jason is also kind of hm about Cloud's brain issues. Mostly because he remembers what that is like. Sort of. Whipped brain. My mansion CYOA...... (me voice) cloud is here.]
Don't really blame you for wanting to be a SOLDIER as a kid.
Yeah, it's what makes my eyes glow. All SOLDIERs are dosed with it. But get too close for too long, you're more likely to get a case of mako poisoning than anything useful. Most people don't wake up from that. They're just... left comatose.
[ so it's a very safe sane and healthy procedure ]
The reactor in Nibelheim was used for power, mostly.
[Whisper to Lup:] Nice. [About her very hilarious save. He seems amused, though, not mean.
Cloud is going to want to sink into the bed and disappear.]
Plenty of people where I'm from do military stuff when they're eighteen. Some of them don't have a lot of choice. Some of them want to try making a difference, want to have value. Sometimes it's both.
I think once they get in, they appreciate the discipline, but... come to resent the bigger values maybe. After they've done things not in a bootcamp.
[ her hilarious save makes him hide a smirk too, honestly. no, she's right, mako is bad. do not bathe in it.
he's looking curious when jason speaks though. it's not a track that's totally unusual, but it's not as common as plenty of people joining at eighteen. also, the idea of having a joining age! haha. ha. shinra is hell. ]
It was kind of like that for me. [ he squeezes lup's hand just because he can? and as a belated response to her. sure. ] I could've picked something else. There's a lot of jobs in the city. But I joined up to... make a difference. Be a big hero like we saw on the news during the war. [ he shrugs a shoulder ] By the time I joined up, they didn't need heroes.
[ and also the news was war propaganda, but that feels like he doesn't need to explain ]

[... she also looks concerned about cloud's brain problems, as usual.]
That sounds like every small town I've been to. [she says, a touch teasing.] Not a bad place, I guess. Even if all the people moved away from it.
... Mako's the stuff that makes your eyes like that, right? [she's gotten such a disjointed explanation of things.]

... Okay, so that's terrible. The like, poisoning. Not your eyes. Your eyes are very pretty.
[...] I guess I don't blame you either, like Jason said. It was a track out of there, I guess?
